Before your Abortion
- If
you desire full sedation, you'll need someone who can come with you,
stay in the waiting room, and then drive you home.
- You
must not eat or drink anything for four hours before your appointment.
- Allow
yourself the day of the procedure and the day after to rest. We will
give you a doctor's excuse for work if needed.
What to Expect on the Day of Surgery
- Our
goal is to make your visit as easy as possible.
- If
you have already made a definite decision to terminate your pregnancy,
plan on approximately 2 hours for your entire visit. If you feel extra
counseling is needed, the visit will be longer.
- In a private room, a staff member will take your medical history, perform
necessary lab work, and an ultrasound. She will also explain the procedure
and answer any questions you might have.
- Then
in a surgery room, the doctor will answer any questions, give you an examination,
and discuss your birth control options.
- Our
patients who choose full sedation usually don't remember the abortion
experience. Once the procedure is completed (usually within 10 minutes)
you will be moved to recovery where you will rest for about 30 - 60 minutes
prior to going home.
- You
will leave our clinic with detailed recovery instructions, all the
medications you need during recovery and a prescription for pain medication. If appropriate we will also include a free pack of birth
control pills and prescription for the rest of the year.
Medical
Abortion using Pills (also known as RU-486)
- You
MUST be less than 8 weeks pregnant AND live within an hour of
our clinic.
Your first appointment will include a medical history, ultrasound (to
confirm the length of pregnancy) and a full physical and breast exam
with our physician.
The
first pill is taken (by mouth) in our office and you will be given
4 pills to insert into the vagina at home 2 days later. (You are welcome
to return to our office for assistance if needed.)
- Two
weeks later you will return for an ultrasound at no additional fee
to ensure that the pregnancy has fully terminated. That day, if appropriate,
we will give you a free pack of birth control pills and a prescription
for the rest of the year.
